Technical Support Forum

Greets,

I just posted a reply on that thread just to see ... no such problem here.

It's wild... tens of thousands of folks logged in here... I wish other people had or reported the problem so I'd have more to go on. I think part of the problem is that Firefox (which you're using) is only around 2.8% of the browser marketshare.

At this point, my best guess is there is something Firefox doesn't like about our site or our login system... but as this seems to only happen to you, it's nearly impossible for me to figure out. I'd love to know if this problem happened while you were using Chrome as that might help us determine if it was a specific problem with your WDC account (I don't think it is), or with Firefox (seems most likely at this point).

But yes -- the login is browser based, not tab based. As such, logging back in to just one of the tabs open should have you logged back in on all of the tabs. Likewise, getting logged out in 1 tab will have you logged out of all the other tabs as that would destroy the browser's login info for all the tabs. And again that's because the login to WDC is based on browser, not tab based.

As usual, I wish I had more to go on and more ways to help you out... aside from recommending Google's Chrome browser as a more widely used browsing solution.
